High-temperature deformation behaviour and microstructural evolution of low carbon steel based on processing map

摘要

The high-temperature deformation behaviours of low carbon steel QD08 were investigated by hot compression tests over temperatures from 1000 to 1200 degrees C and strain rates from 0.1 to 10 s(-1). The processing map was obtained by superimposition of the power dissipation and the instability maps and the regions having the lowest strain rate sensitivity added for more clarification of low and high workability regions. The results show that the security domain mainly of hot deformation with a higher powder dissipation factor and maintain a smooth variation, by the metallographic observations, the grain refinement by DRX under the stable deformation conditions. On the basis of processing map and microstructure evolution, the optimal deformation processing parameters are the hot deformation temperature range from 1070 to 1100 degrees C, and strain rates range from 5 to 10 s(-1).
